Trial summary

Gallium-68-DOTATOC binds primarily with high affinity to somatostatin subtype 2 (SSTR2) receptors and these somatostatin receptors are also overexpressed on inflammation cells when activated. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: GATED-PET Heart Analysis in Patients Having a Gallium-68--DOTATOC PET/CT Exam for Oncology Indication

Gallium-68-DOTATOC binds primarily with high affinity to somatostatin subtype 2 (SSTR2) receptors and these somatostatin receptors are also overexpressed on inflammation cells when activated.

The hypothesis is that the GATED mode on a Gallium-68-DOTATOC cardiac recording would be able to highlight abnormalities that could be correlated with the age of the patients and their cardiovascular risk factors.

Read the detailed description

People with the selection criteria for the study, coming to the nuclear medicine department in order to benefit from a Gallium-68-DOTATOC PET/CT exam as part of a diagnostic or pre-therapeutic assessment of a neuroendocrine tumor will be offer to participate in the study After sign consent, patients were install in a room to have blood drawn for Troponin Ic, BNP and CRP and after Gallium-68-DOTATOC infusion Gallium-68-DOTATOC PET/CT will be recorded and immediately the cardiac record in Gated mode

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cardiac ECG-gated PET imaging will added in people with Cardiac Inflammation, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact VERONIQUE ROCH, MSc (03 83 15 42 76 ext. +33, v.roch@chru-nancy.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Relationship between the captation of radiotracer and the cardiovascular disease (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Jun 2026.
